Burg Neu-Windeck, Medieval castle ruins in Lauf, Germany.
The Gothic castle structure includes a three-story palas, residential buildings, and a 20-meter-high keep on a hilltop at 310 meters elevation.
The Lords of Windeck constructed Burg Neu-Windeck around 1300, with the first documented mention of the fortification appearing in historical records from 1371.
The castle chapel, dedicated to the Three Kings in 1377, represented the religious practices and architectural traditions of medieval German nobility.
Visitors can access the castle grounds Thursday through Sunday from 10 AM to 5 PM, with a parking area located near the entrance.
The marriage of Berthold von Neu-Windeck to Anna von Alt-Windeck in 1466 ended generations of conflict between two branches of the same family.
